The Last Door Chapters 1 - 3
An episodic point-and-click horror adventure game that has you putting one hand on the mouse and the other over your eyes.
Posted: 10/28/13 | Category:
| Developer:
The Game Kitchen
| Platform: Browser or web
Scary games aren't usually my genre. Jump scares, horrifying visuals and general creepiness don't appeal to me in any form. I do appreciate them, as they serve as different type of gameplay style to get your heart rate up. I haven't totally discounted them either; two of my more recent entries have been the
Chzo Mythos
collection created by Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw, and the
Resident Evil
series before that (nothing past the second one, when the series turned into the over-the-top action genre, save for the fourth but that can be its own title apart from the
series). My earliest memory is one of being absolutely terrified of the shrieking freak from
Space Quest IV
(but didn't stop me from playing).
That being said, with the third chapter of
The Last Door
now available, I decided to jump in. I knew it'd be a bit moody and spooky, but the classic pixelated graphics will help keep the scares at bay, right?
Oh boy.
So let's get into it. This review is covering
Chapters One through Three
, as the fourth is still in development and asking for funding at this time. The Game Kitchen is expecting to release that one in January of 2014. It doesn't sound like a faraway date but with the way the third chapter ended, waiting will be torture.
The Last Door
is primarily a point-and-click adventure that is set in the late 19
century, with pixelated yet nostalgic graphics. The setting is a rather prime choice, as you'll be traveling about in rustic and classical areas that aren't well-lit, brightly-colored or, from a modern view, particularly pleasant to be in, period. This makes the game as much a new experience for the player as it is for the main character, Jeremiah Devitt. The settings offer nothing to directly relate to in time period or experience.
The first chapter,
The Letter
, centers on Devitt receiving a letter from Anthony Beechcraft, an old friend from boarding school. You make it to the Beechcraft mansion and upon immediate exploration, realize that you're alone...but not entirely. There are various rooms to explore, each detailed in a pixelated manner but with varying degrees of darkness and brightness to bring the scenery out. There are also clues scattered about that indicate Devitt's friend was slowly descending into madness, as well as leaving the mansion unkempt.
Everything is done via the mouse; there are no secondary commands to "look" or "feel" or "talk," and using objects is as simple as selecting them from your inventory and clicking them on points of interest. This streamlines the game to a very playable degree and allows you the time to be sucked into the atmosphere, which should be known as its own character or perhaps even a villain, with how well-entrenched it can get into and play tricks on your mind.
Yes, despite the classic pixel graphics,
The Last Door
amps up the sound department to a degree that is borderline terrifying, and creates an atmosphere that has made me not at all interested to venture into rooms unless all the lights are on in my office. It is extremely well-done and fans of the horror adventure game genre will surely be pleased by the experience.
By the end of the first chapter, my heart was ready to pound its way out of my chest, but my interest was piqued and realized that I couldn't quit now, not when the story is just getting started.
The second chapter,
, expands on the story quite a bit and adds additional gameplay elements to help further the experience. This chapter's setting is the boarding school-turned hospital for the sick. The first chapter saw Devitt walking too slow for most adventure gamer's tastes, so in the second chapter we see his walking speed up to a much more tolerable degree. The next addition is new characters to talk to, each with conversation topics that contain hints concerning where to find clues or items. This chapter is a bit longer and has some interesting puzzles to overcome that require a decent amount of head-scratching, but they're not littered about to hold up the story or game. Overall the second chapter is my favorite for the fact that there are less shock scares, but it doesn't hold back on the unnerving and incredibly increased sense of dread as you explore the building. There are a few bugs, but nothing that can't be solved with a re-load of the game, which luckily immediately picks up where you left off.
The second chapter brings flashbacks into the mix, as we discover that Devitt's past isn't all that good and clear. By the time the second chapter is at its end, you'll definitely be loading up the third chapter.
This latest chapter,
The Four Witnesses
, follows in the same gameplay vein as the second chapter. The puzzles get a bit more "ah-ha!" and the atmosphere gets downright chilly. This time Devitt, after his rather tight fit of a trip, comes to in Old Nichol, a shady and dangerous place in London. The muted and cold colors definitely don't make the player feel at home at all, and this time audio is a big key to solving puzzles. Some of the puzzles are a bit convoluted and I found myself more stuck than usual. Unfortunately, there's a return of Devitt's slow walking speed, but only while you're inside buildings. This just made me anxiously click the mouse in hopes of making Devitt move across the screen before some imaginary phantom leaped from the darkness.
The best and worst part about the third chapter is definitely the ending. The build-up and lead-in felt as if we'd see something that'd help get us through the next few months until the
Chapter Four
, but sadly, it was nothing but an excellent cliffhanger. The whole experience has left me wanting more and all I can do is sit and watch the calendar slowly make its way to January.
The Last Door
is a perfect game for horror adventure game adventurers. It isn't taxing on a computer, and the relative shortness of the chapters allow for easy time management. The story is definitely intriguing and almost feels as if it's a novel at first. The best aspects are definitely the sound design and the scenery – never before have I ever wanted to make sure lights were on in every room when I was home alone. There are some bugs, but not ones to ruin a game. A majority of the puzzles are logical and there is fun to be had trying to solve them, but there might be one or two that will drive some players nuts. Don't let it get you down,
The Last Door
is definitely a must-play, and if a scaredy-cat like me can make it through,
Now excuse me while I plug in this nightlight.

Japanese Office Lady
So how do you like your office ladies?
A description straight from Wikipedia on "Office Lady" is... An office lady, often abbreviated OL (Japanese: オーエル Ōeru), is a female office worker in Japan who performs generally pink collar tasks such as serving tea and secretarial or clerical work.
Like many unmarried Japanese, OLs often live with their parents well into early adulthood.
Office ladies are usually full-time permanent staff, although the jobs they do usually have little opportunity for promotion, and there is usually the tacit expectation that they leave their jobs once they get married.
What that entry in Wikipedia doesnt tell you however is that in a typical Japanese company, most OL's are obliged to wear uniform at work.
Most internet and media related companies that I've visited before tend not to impose a uniform on the ladies.
These are photos from the OL uniform section of the Askul catalog. Thought I'd show you what the typical uniforms look like and talk about what you thought about ladies wearing uniform at work.
I've only worked at one company where they required the ladies to wear uniform and they said that they didn't mind as they didn't have to worry about what to wear everyday.
Some said they hated it though.
If you were running your own company in Japan, would you make the decision for the ladies to wear uniform?
As you are the boss, you can also insist that the ladies wear uniforms in this way.
In an environment where the OL's wear uniform, the salary man (the opposite of OL) would usually be wearing suits.
And here are some other pages from Askul - they sell just about anything needed for the office.
Askul and Haruhi.

I'm really keen on everything that moves on tracks. This is why I've decided to take a model of a steam engine for my first WIP thread.
The locomotive itself was build by Warsaw boiler manufacturer in 1927 for Żnin narrow-gauge (600mm) railway. There is not much known about the further history of this engine except that it was scrapped in the late 70's. Nothing was left except a few photos.
Lately, I found and bought a paper model of this engine. I intended to glue it at once, but there were many inaccuracies. This encouraged me to made its digital version first. It will be also a good occasion to practice texture painting and mechanical parts rigging (valve gear will be quite a fun :D).
Okay, quit with this jabbering. Let's get to the point.
That's what I've managed to complete through the last 2 days: The main part of the chassis with wheels, bearings and cylinders (those still need some refining):
I'm looking forward to your questions and comments.

Coming soon: paid YouTube channels?
When Google purchased YouTube for $1.65bn in late 2006, some wondered whether the acquisition would be the Web 2.0 equivalent of Yahoo's ill-fated billion-dollar purchase of Broadcast.com during the first .com boom.
It was hard not to be somewhat skeptical: YouTube was an expensive operation to run and was facing the same type of legal assault from Hollywood that basically killed Napster 1.0 years earlier.
2013: the year of paid content?
Paid content is and has been a big business -- if you're in the right market.
Unfortunately for consumer-oriented news organizations, the right market isn't their market.
But could that be changing?
New York Times cuts free articles to 10 per month
Can paid content save newspapers? For many newspapers, there is good reason to be skeptical.
But trying to get readers to pay for content is a necessary move and naturally, major dailies like The New York Times are having an easier go of it.
Are newspapers in the US doomed?
The past decade has been tough for newspapers, but many newspaper execs are arguably more upbeat about the future than one might expect.
There may be a need for that optimism, but it might also be completely unfounded if new figures about newspaper revenue in 2011 are any indication.
Will relationship building cost newspapers too much?
The New York Times is giving pay wall skeptics reason to reconsider their skepticism. Despite questions about the company's paywall strategy, the daily has managed to lure some 325,000 paying subscribers.
That's good news for a newspaper that some believed might not survive.
Six things to learn from the Louis CK experiment
Can a prominent comedian shake up the comedy business by producing his own event and selling it to consumers online in digital format DRM-free? Thanks to Louis CK's experiment, we now know the answer is yes.
More than 100,000 comedy fans have snapped up 'Louis CK: Live at the Beacon Theater' for $5, earning the comedian a healthy profit and sparking a discussion about digital content, business models and pricing.
Here's what you can learn from Louis CK's experiment.
Netflix enters the U.K. and Ireland as it stumbles in the U.S.
Yesterday, Netflix announced that its aggressive international expansion plans will bring its internet movie and television streaming service to the U.K. and Ireland in early 2012.
The announcement should have been a bright spot for a company which has been flying high for the past several years. But it was overshadowed by a bout of bad news: last quarter, Netflix lost 800,000 subscribers in the U.S.
Publisher tablet revenue growing more meaningful
Investing millions to launch an iPad-only publication may prove to be one of the best ways of making a small fortune from a large fortune, but for traditional publishers that have been hawking their wares on the iPad, Kindle and NOOK, tablets are starting to have an impact.
That's according to two executives from Condé Nast and Hearst who took part in a panel at the American Magazine Conference.
Both indicated that their companies are close to achieving $10m in revenue from tablets.
The Daily's iPad-only strategy isn't working
Earlier this year, Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. announced that it was making a significant bet on tablet devices.
The bet: that an iPad-only news publication could launch and thrive at a time when many established news publications were struggling to survive.
"New times demand new journalism," Murdoch proclaimed. And with eight figures in investment in The Daily, he stated confidently, "we believe The Daily will be the model for how stories are told and consumed in this digital age".
Half a year later, however, The Daily appears to be off to a slower start than Murdoch may have anticipated.
Q&A: Tomas Bella of Piano Media on the paywall that's working
While many publishers in the West struggle to build profitable paywalls, I recently reported that a paywall in the East may provide a blueprint for success.
That paywall was erected in Slovakia by a company called Piano Media. It brought together nine of Slovakia's largest news publishers, and the early results are impressive given the size and characteristics of the Slovakian market.
Should publishers sell tablets?
When Apple announced the iPad, many executives in the publishing industry voiced high hopes for the tablet device. "This could be the technology that helps us capitalize on digital," they effectively said in one way or another.
Of course, today we know that the iPad isn't a panacea for traditional publishers. That, of course, doesn't mean that tablet devices aren't important to them, or that they should abandon all hope.
But how much hope is too much hope?
Does Slovakia hold the secret to paywall success?
Here's a question most publishers would love to have an answer to: what's the secret to building a successful pay wall?
Although one might expect major publishers like the New York Times to eventually provide the answer, newspapers in Slovakia may have beat their Western counterparts to the task.

We regularly engrave and stain logo's and custom works of art. We can take a drawing, draft and transform it right into your existing concrete. By cutting into your concrete you do not need to worry about a pattern coming off. It is there as long as that concrete slab is there.

Syfy's long-running series will return with six all-new episodes in 2014
Syfy announced Thursday that "Warehouse 13," the Emmy Award-nominated, long-running hit series, will commence production on its fifth and final season June 24 in Toronto.
The six all-new episodes of season five will premiere in 2014.
Said "Warehouse 13" showrunner and executive producer Jack Kenny " 'Warehouse 13' has been my dream job these past four years. These last six episodes will be a gift from my brilliant writing staff and the best cast and crew in television to our amazingly loyal fans. I'm thrilled that we can build the climax of our 'Warehouse' tale to a satisfying conclusion."
Season four of "Warehouse 13" is currently airing Mondays at 10 p.m., following the new hit series "Defiance," which airs at 9 p.m.
"Warehouse 13" follows a team of government agents who work at a massive, top-secret storage facility in windswept South Dakota, which houses every strange artifact, mysterious relic, fantastical object and preternatural souvenir ever collected by the U.S. government. The Warehouse's caretaker Artie Nielsen (Saul Rubinek) charges Pete Lattimer (Eddie McClintock), Myka Bering (Joanne Kelly), Claudia Donovan (Allison Scagliotti) and Steve Jinks (Aaron Ashmore) with chasing down reports of supernatural and paranormal activity in search of new objects to cache at the Warehouse, as well as helping him control the Warehouse itself.

A recent federal district court ruling found that two unpaid interns who worked on a Fox Searchlight film are owed back wages.
Additional interns who were not paid have stepped forward.
"I'm sure this is causing a lot of discussions to be held in human resource offices and internship programs across the country," Suffolk University Law School Professor David Yamada has said in media reports.
Yamada gives a comprehensive overview of the case and issues raised in his Minding the Workplace blog.

I suppose this is why instead of finding the spectacle of Sepp Blatter lying and cheating his way to re-election as leader of FIFA amusing, I find myself cursing at the television as well as at my ankle. It certainly takes a large dollop of delusion for Blatter to think that the inevitable corruption scandal that has exploded under his watch is not any kind of crisis, just "some difficulties". I noted at the time that Mr. Blatter's humiliation of the English FA over the right to stage the World Cup in 2018, combined with the frankly bizarre decision to stage it in Qatar in 2022 would eventually come back to haunt him. In fact, Mr. Blatter's absurd pretence that FIFA faces no crisis- and even if it does, and although he is its leader, he is nonetheless not to blame- is now leading to a meltdown as scandal after scandal destroys the institution. It is a fantastic example of hubris facing nemesis, and while I find it bleakly satisfying to see such humiliation piled on the old crook, I can not feel more than irritation that he is still in his job. As with Gadaffi who too lingers on in his increasingly crumbling capital, one can not help wishing that he would just go, and the news cycle could pass on to something else.
Although it has been the British press that- for what they probably feel are justified reasons of revenge- has lead the attacks, it is now quite clear that Blatter has a case to answer, and the clamour has now gone way beyond the feral British tabloids. If Blatter cared about more than his own flabby hide, he would have led a compromise, but his untrammelled power within FIFA has allowed him to think that he can get away with anything. Perhaps he can for a while: but he will destroy FIFA with it, and maybe that would be no bad thing.

Deputies: Ohio burglar's cell phone called 911
Phone found in suspect's pocket, beeping
Sheriff's deputies say a burglary suspect was caught because his own cell phone called 911.
The Shelby County Sheriff's Office said deputies responded to a Miami River Road home on Tuesday after a dispatcher was able to trace an open-line cell phone call to that location.
Deputies checking out the house found a window that was forced open, went inside, then heard a beeping sound from a bathroom.
The deputies said they ordered anyone inside to come out, and Doug Wolaver appeared.
The sheriff's office said the phone that called 911 was found in Wolaver's pocket, beeping because its battery was low.
The sheriff's office said the phone probably made the call as Wolaver was going through the window. Wolaver said he "was scrapping" metal, and the deputies said they found several feet of copper pipe and tubing in the house.
Sheriff John Lenhart said in a news release that "the last time his deputies had to work this hard to solve a burglary is when the suspect left his wallet behind."
The sheriff's office said Wolaver is charged with breaking and entering.

Two North Bergen students were chosen to participate in a prestigious national football game in Dallas that was played in January. Seventh graders Ethan Govea and Michael Santini participated in a week of activities including training, networking and a visit to the Cotton Bowl, culminating in their playing on the winning team at the Junior Academic All American Bowl.
It all began many months earlier.
"I was just playing a game and afterward some guy came on the field and it was Marvin, and the head coach called us on the field and he congratulated us and told us we were chosen to participate in the game in Philly," explained Michael.
IV Star Showcase
"Marvin" is Marvin Chambers, CEO of IV Star Showcase, a regional East Coast operation. "We're a recruiting agency and we provide a service for getting these kids recruited through our games."
IV Star Showcase is designed to promote outstanding young football players with strong academic credentials through a series of exhibition games. Participants are nominated by parents, teachers, coaches, or other interested parties, and demonstration videotapes must be submitted.
"Our process is very meticulous. Last year there were 200 kids selected out of 5,000 nominations," said Chambers. Based on the information submitted, IV Star Showcase recruiters travel to schools up and down the East Coast to evaluate the nominees.
Chambers recalled the first time he saw Ethan and Michael.
"They're very special kids and they play very hard." – Marvin Chambers
"Michael is a linebacker, a fullback," Chambers said. "Govea, he played center some games, some games end or tackle. What I liked is they're very coachable, flexible. You could see the passion and the sportsmanship. You don't see at that age kids who are able to move around for the team. They're very special kids and they play very hard."
Based on what he saw, Chambers made an offer for the two to come play the IV Star Showcase in Pennsylvania.
"There's a lot of people there checking out their talent," he said. "Our main goal is to get them to the next level. Academics come first, we teach that all the time. We also want these guys to develop kinship, bonding, because hopefully they'll be playing together on a collegiate level."
Both Michael and Ethan performed well at the games—well enough that they were scouted by national all-star recruiters.
"There was an evaluation by Bret Cooper and his executive committee," Chambers said.
From that game, 12 kids were chosen to participate in the Junior Academic All American Bowl.
"About two weeks after I got back from the first all-star games, my dad showed me the e-mail from Bret and I got really excited," remembered Ethan.
Junior Academic All American Bowl
Bret Cooper started the Junior Academic All American Bowl four years ago, after running a similar program in Arizona. The program is intended to highlight the best student athletes from across the country.
"We created it to give a new way of recognizing them on the football field," said Cooper. "In order to get recognized for college and recruited, they look at you academically and your character first. To be selected for the Junior Academic All American Bowl you need to have a 3.0 GPA."
"We're seen as kind of a filter," he continued. "Colleges want to know if the kids are coachable. That's the kind of kids the colleges want. They look at these kids as early recruits. And kids are getting recognized. Last year we had 28 players that were offered scholarships in eighth and ninth grade."
The program, held annually in Texas, consists of an intensive week of training, practice, drills… and fun.
"This year we had the Cotton Bowl teamed up with us," said Cooper. "That was an experience for the kids—not only to attend the bowl, but to attend as an All-American. They had jerseys on, they attended pre-game events, they held trophies for photos."
And then there was the game itself.
"They competed against top players from all over the country and Canada. One hundred and fifteen kids participated this year."
As for Ethan and Michael, "Both were on the winning team, so they had a good time," Cooper said.
Life experience
"The games themselves are great opportunities to show what you can do," said Ethan of the experience. "I learned how different coaches coach, different styles of playing, new ways of playing, how to get better, how to work hard with everything, not just football."
"Everything is possible," said Michael. "You have to work really hard to get to the next level.
Just keep on training and get ready for the next football season and do well in school. School comes first."
"My whole family's been involved with football," he added, "and I just want to carry on the legacy."
"One of the reasons we moved back from Bergen County," said Michael's mother, Jennifer Santini, "was so my son could continue playing for Hudson County. My dad [legendary local coach Vincent Ascolese] coached here for a long time, like 39 years. He just retired a few years ago. My son always wanted to play for North Bergen."
"I mostly did it for my grandpa," said Michael.

Revealing some important security tips to protect your wordpress blog from hackers. I know what you are looking for? You need all guide on how to protect wordpress site from hacking and prevent your blog from hackers. If that's your problem then you are in right place. Today I would teach you all wordpress security tips to prevent your website from being hacked. You well know why users choose wordpress as their platform for blogging when compared to blogger and other. Due to lot of plugins professional themes, and mostly the importance of php never dies. When it comes to blogger you can't use php in blogger. This is a big advantage of using wordpress including SEO. Many pro bloggers tell wordpress blogs are good for seo. But I don't think this is best. Regarding SEO both are equal. There is only problem in blogger permanent link structure.
Hackers are smart enough to play with php codes. Php inserted into your templates or plugin files, helps hackers to get your data. Indirectly giving your username and password to hacker. So there are some important tips to be considered regarding security of your wordpress blog / website.
1. Change admin username in wordpress
By default you get admin as username in wordpress. If you still use admin as username in wordpress blogs then it's time to change it right now. Hackers use brute force methods to hack your blog or website by using a default username "admin". So don't give them a chance. Create new account in wordpress, give admin rights to this account and now deleted your admin account.
Create new admin account in wordpress :
From wordpress dashboard, Migrate to Locate users , click on Add New. Fill details and ensure you have selected "Administrator". Save and switch back to Users profile and delete your old "admin" account.
2. Block Root Folders in WordPress
Many wordpress users don't know this. I have checked it in many popular blogs and found they still don't have knowledge on disabling accessing root(directory) folders. I was one among them few days back but not now. I strongly recommend you to be aware of blocking directory folder access in wordpress. You need to add Options All -Indexes at end of your robots.txt file in wordpress blog to prevent accessing your uploads or admin folders.
3. Use updated wordpress versions
You well know how important an update is. WordPress keeps on providing updates to increase it's security and make wordpress users to leave bugged versions. A new update comes only when something need to be fixed or to add new features. This also happens in wordpress. When a new version is released you can see what's new in wordpress version followed by bugs fixed in old versions. This would be advantage for hacker to target your blog if you are using old versions of wordpress.
New version shows all the bugs fixed in old version and hacker knows how to use bugs present in old versions to hack your website. This is also considered to be a security tip so don't give them chance. Also note never see updates bubbles in your wordpress dashboard. Always have a updated version of plugins and wordpress.
4. Move Wp-Config.php File up one level
Which file contains wordpress site username and password? Well that is wp-config.php file. Wp-Config.php file contains your wordpress site uersname and password. Your car keys is equal to wp-config.php file. So you need to move wp-config.php file up one level. Inorder to do it just login to your cpanel( as per hostgator), click on File Manager, then select your website and choose public_html directory, their you find wp-config file, select and click on move one level up out of wordpress site folder.
5. Check wordpress theme for malicious codes
As I told you wordpress deals with php codes and if you don't have good knowledge in php? How could you manage to find malicious code in your wordpress themes? Many go for cloned wordpress themes that look like premium and you think, you got a premium version for free. You just download free theme and start using it. One day, you catch your head settings in front your computer and searching for " How to recover hacked wordpress site?" or " My wordpress site is hacked what to do?". So it takes few minutes to check your theme for malicious codes by using Theme Authenticity Checker (TAC) plugin. Download Here and check your wordpress theme for malicious codes
6. Choose good hosting provider
Hmm, this is first thing to be considered. A good host with good technical staff helps you. I have been using hostgator and this works fine. Hostgator really have good supporters who fix all your problems with in minutes. So I recommend bluehost and hostgator for hosting your wordpress blogs. Don't think of using a low cost hosting services which came up recently to attract users for low pricing. Read : Godaddy Vs Bigrock
If you really choose a cheap , fake hosting services then these tips to secure your wordpress blog/site don't help you. So if you are using good host, then you can always be secured, if your wordpress blog is hacked then hosting team, surely come into live with in hours if possible minutes to fix all your problems.
7. Limit login attempts
I have a special article on " Secure login attempts wordpress plugin " that would surely help you in limit login attempts. You can find more information and do read that article. You need to know whether hackers targeting your site or not? So this feature helps to get email notification if anyone tries to login into your account.
Apart from using Limit Login Attempts wordpress plugin, I have to point out another important plugin named Chap Secure Login. Chap Secure wordpress plugin is best encrypted login plugin. This plugin uses SHA-256 algorithm to protect your username and password. Download Chap Secure Plugin
Also let me point out another plugin Login Lockdown which is very useful to block IP address that are recorded for repeated logins. So thinking of many wordpress site security plugins, there are many to secure login attempts and login errors. Download Login Lockdown plugin
8. Enable 2nd Verification in WordPress
Probably in gmail and other emails, it has been recently introduced to enable 2nd verification system. Now why not in wordpress? You can now enable second verification in wordpress for mobile phones. WordPress is not providing this but you have always a boom, I mean plugin to use them for step two verification. I recommend you to use Authy which is more popular plugin for enabling second factor authentication. You also have Google Authenticator which is Google Official Authenticator App.
9. Trust what you use
I know you are too crazy to make your website more attract and give professional look to your blog. I can also guess how smart your mind thinks to make your wordpress blog look like highly professional. You install some good attractive plugins and make your blog look well. But trust plugins what you use. Always do check the plugin rating. Some wordpress plugins contain malicious scripts that make your blog get affected. And later you search for "What plugin is making my blog to get into trouble?"
Does old plugins could be trusted?
You mostly don't come up will this kind of questions. All most all plugins are updated. So I don't want to discuss more about out dated wordpress plugin. Some plugins work like charm and they don't need an update. Do check twice and use it.
10. Have a regular backup to your blog
Creating backup to your wordpress blog helps to reset everything if you got affected by hacker. So backup to wordpress site is always recommended and never neglect backup. You get the importance of wordpress blog backup only when your site gets affected.
11. Remove powered by wordpress
Hacker have many methods to hack wordpress site. It is our duty to take care of each and every point to prevent wordpress site from them. So you need to hide/remove powered by wordpress from your blog. Mostly different theme has their own specification. Mostly it is located in footer.php Migrate to Appearance >> Editor. At left side find for footer.php and check when "powered by wordpress is located their or not" If located then remove that piece of code. Take care guys, do it carefully. Don't try to remove the code if you don't know how to do it.
SO, I thinks these are best security tips to secure your websites from hackers. I have not discussed some basic tips like using high security password with characters, numbers and symbols. Not sharing your password with others. Don't include people whom you don't trust as admin of your blog. So you might now be able to manage all wordpress site security.

Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Resort President Dave Riley applauded after learning at Monday's meeting in Hood River that the Oregon Department of Transportation would reopen Highway 35 in both directions at 5 a.m. on Saturday.
Although the resort won't open until 9 a.m. as usual, Riley was excited about getting the business up and running during its most profitable months. Meadows has been inaccessible to recreationists since Nov. 7 debris flows washed out 2.5 miles of the roadway.
"We have five feet of settled snow in the base area, more than six feet at mid-mountain, and we've had time to groom it," said Riley. "That is substantially more than what we would normally open with and we look forward to getting as much of the mountain open as conditions allow."
Riley said the 1,000 seasonal employees who have been "on hold" are excited about finally getting to work. The majority of Meadows personnel come from Hood River County and the company feeds a $5 million payroll back into the community.
"I think this made us all very aware of the importance of this highway," said Riley.
Meadows is planning a "Glacial Outburst: I Survived 35" party on Dec. 16. The fun-filled event will feature the Paul deLay Band — with a focus on the "Delay," quipped Riley.
"We have a lot to celebrate and we are going to be honoring all of the officials who helped us get the job done," he said.
Karla Keller, Region 1 operations manager for ODOT, briefed her audience at the Dec. 4 meeting about the massive undertaking to repair the highway so quickly. Last weekend, the agency and contractor Tri-State Construction had more than 50 pieces of heavy equipment on the ground, including excavators, bulldozers, dump trucks and loaders. ODOT officials estimate that about 400,000 cubic yards of material has been moved, with crews working 24 hours a day in some locations.
Although the rebuilt sections of Highway 35 near Newton and Clark creeks, and to the north of the White River Bridge will be easily accessible, the repairs continue. ODOT estimates that only 50 percent of its work has been completed. Equipment will continue to clear out the channel to the White River Bridge and its underspan, both of which were completely filled with materials.
The price tag for the 2006 event is expected to be at least $20 million and possibly higher. State and federal officials are in agreement with ODOT that a long-term fix is needed to prevent ongoing emergency expenditures.
The Nov. 7 flood damage was greater than the 2000 washouts in the same areas after 600,000 cubic yards of glacial material slid down the mountain slopes. Other past storms have caused similar damage along the highway.
ODOT has prepared a "Hot Spot" study of the seven major flood zones. With the latest repairs almost completed, the agency plans to pursue long-term solutions to the ongoing problem, such as building a longer and larger bridge over the White River.
The U.S. Forest Service has closed the White River West Snow Park for the 2006-07 season. Agency officials said an embankment has eroded in one location, creating a 40 foot cliff that makes the area unsafe for sledding or inner-tubing.

Quilts of the Valley this weekend
Catawba Valley Quilters Guild welcomes quilter enthusiasts and shoppers alike during its Oct. 12-14 weekend event at the Metro Convention Center in Hickory. The event starts Friday morning and runs until Sunday afternoon and features quilts, homemade items and supplies for all levels of quilters.
Libby Sigmon said the event happens every three years and features more than 100 quilts on display for the public to see.
"The quilts are made from members in the quilters guild who come from five different counties and two out of state," Sigmon said.
During the weekend event, free demonstrations will be scattered throughout the convention center. One member of the guild will show a demonstration on thread sketching. The technique shows how fast the needle moves as she "draws" with it. Thread sketching is not a digital process and requires fast moving hands.
To read more of this story, pick up the Thursday edition of Catawba County's community newspaper, The Observer News Enterprise, at newsstands throughout the county.

Councils 'not providing childcare'
More than two thirds of councils are failing to ensure enough childcare is provided for working parents, campaigners for families' rights have warned.
Just one in five local authorities have enough childcare for parents with children under two, and one in three for school age children, the Daycare Trust and Family and Parenting Institute said.%VIRTUAL-SkimlinksPromo%
And just one in seven have enough childcare for disabled children - a figure which has not improved in five years, the charity said.
The research follows recently published Department for Work and Pensions figures that showed a third of parents who want to work more cannot because they are unable to find affordable childcare.
Daycare Trust and Family and Parenting Institute chief executive Anand Shukla said: "Councils across England and Wales are failing families by presiding over a continuing shortage of high quality, affordable childcare."
He added: "Local authorities have a legal duty to ensure a sufficient supply of childcare in their areas, but no doubt their failure to do so is linked to the tight financial squeeze they find themselves in, with ever more austere funding settlements.
"Only the Government can address this situation by investing more in providing support for parents."
The charity's Childcare Costs Survey 2013 also contains evidence suggesting that plans to increase the number of pre-school children that nurseries and childminders can look after will have little impact on childcare costs.
As part of coalition efforts to cut childcare costs, staff are to be able to take charge of six two-year-olds rather than four while the ratio for under-ones will go up from three to four.
A Government spokesman said: "We are reforming the childcare system so that providers have more flexibility when they have highly qualified staff and childminders are better supported. Ratio changes, which are not compulsory, will allow providers to have the flexibility to increase pay for better qualified workers."

Police arrest Concord man for burglary
January 02. 2013 10:46AM
CONCORD - A local man is under arrest for burglary, the result of an investigation into several residential break-ins over the past three weeks.
Michael Maynard, 49, was arrested Monday afternoon on a charge of violating bail conditions. He refused bail and was brought to the Merrimack County jail to await arraignment.
On Tuesday, police charged him with burglary and a second count of violating bail conditions.
He is accused of breaking into an unoccupied home on Warren Street last Friday and stealing several items.
According to a police news release, detectives have not eliminated the possibility that others were involved in the burglary.
Police ask anyone with information about the recent break-ins to call them at 228-8600 or Concord Regional Crimeline at 336-3100.
What's next: Maynard is to be arraigned Wednesday morning at 6th Circuit Court, Concord District Division.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency and Britain's Barclays Bank PLC announced a $280 million settlement Thursday in a lawsuit about bad mortgage bonds sold by the bank in the run up to the housing-market collapse.
Barclays agreed to pay $227 million to Freddie Mac and another $53 million to Fannie Mae for violations of securities laws over a period of 2005 to 2007. The bank committed the alleged violations during the sale to those quasi-government entities of mortgage-backed securities.
The FHFA is the government conservator of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which were seized by the Bush administration as the financial crisis gathered steam in summer of 2008. The agency filed 18 lawsuits in 2011 tied to the sale to those entities of what are called private-label mortgage bonds. The settlement with Barclays is the 13th of the 18 suits, the FHFA said in a statement.
The settlement document provided little information about the wrongdoing, but the agency had gone after not only the bank but three executives _ Michael Wade, John Carroll and Paul Menefee. They were all involved in the bundling of mortgages into complex bonds, a process called securitization, and their names were on filings to the SEC about the complex securities that the housing regulator said knowingly contained false information.

Live from the Kimmel Center Plaza and
Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts
Listen to the Concert Live Friday on the Radio and Online at XPN.org/listen.
This Month, XPN Free At Noon is On The Road
Live from the Kimmel Center Plaza and PIFA
This week's free at noon performance features the renowned Duncan Sheik, a multiple award winning singer-songwriter and Broadway composer, who from the start of his career was a top Billboard charter. After releasing his self-titled debut album in 1996 on Atlantic Records, his smashing single "Barely Breathing" brought Sheik into the songwriting spotlight and the album was certified Gold. Despite his incredibly strong start, Sheik continued to take each of his subsequent albums to new territories of sound, content and structure. Expanding from pop elements to orchestral arrangements and important social concerns, his sound exponentially matured with time. So while Shiek's occasional returns to pop territory brought him back into mainstream popularity, his additional projects as a composer exposed his talent for putting together elaborate works.
While continuing to produce albums, Sheik also forayed into the world of Broadway plays. Teaming up with Stephen Sater, he composed music for the Grammy and Tony award winning musical Spring Awakening, for which he won awards for Best Orchestration and Best Original Score. His success as a composer lives on, but to many fans, the announcement of his upcoming release comes as a pleasant surprise. Following 2009's Whisper House, his sixth full length album to date, he plans on releasing an album full of synth-pop 80's covers. Due for release on June 7, the album is aptly called Covers 80's and explores takes on classic tunes from Depeche Mode, New Order, The Cure and more. Featuring some additions from folk vocal sweethearts Rachael Yamagata and Holly Brook, the covers are undeniable Sheik and personal.
Duncan's new album, Covers 80's will be out in June. He'll play a full show at World Cafe Live in Philly on June 12.

This service has been great! I found the ideal roommates and the most incredible apartment through this service. I wish you existed years ago when I was looking. I paid about $200 last time registering with a bunch of roommate services and got absolutely no results. It too me months to find something. It only took me a week with your service. Thanks! - Susan
I used to put ads in Newspapers for rooms for rent...this turned out to be a disaster. Locals with no jobs and trashy people were the only ones calling. I only used Roommates.com this time and ended up getting 2 great people for roommates. Very pleased!! I will always use this site in the future! Thanks a bunch! - Sally

Publisher's Summary
Written during the turmoil of the English Civil War, Leviathan was, in Hobbes' lifetime, publicly burnt and even condemned in Parliament as one of the causes of the Great Fire of London in 1666. Its current appeal lies not just in its elevation of politics to a science, but in its overriding concern for peace, its systematic analysis of power, and its convincing apologia for the then-emergent market society in which we still live.

For PoliSci Graduate Students as a Readalong
I bought this audiobook as a readalong to the book for a graduate class in Political Theory on Classical Liberalism. The printed book is difficult and densely written, especially with odd spellings, long sentences, and intense definitions. It helps to have the audiobook playing as you read the book, to break down the sentences.
This is no light reading. It is for academicians and students only. Yet, it provides a connection between the 13th century Magna Carta or Rights of Man, and the French and American revolutions, which raised individual rights to a new height. Hobbes believes in individual rights but maintains that monarchy is the best form of central government. This connection is important to political theory, and Hobbes is its main author.
The narration is clear and with just the right affect as to delineate between concepts. The Greek in the text is ignored in the audiobook, but does not detract from the idea. Well done audiobook perfectly calibrated to the Norton Critical edition.

The Age of Enlightenment Starts With This Book
The Open Syllabus Project, the systematic study of over one million college syllabi ranks this book as the seventh most popular book cited by syllabi. After having listened to this book I know exactly why. The Age of Enlightenment starts with this book.
It's clear that the project of the Enlightenment was the dialectic of answering the pessimism of Hobbes with the optimism of John Locke. They might not have had to agree with Hobbes, but they had to respond to him.
Hobbes is very subtle in some of his arguments. The time period still believes in witches and superstition, and beliefs based on authority. Hobbes does not. The strength of Hobbes arguments is he understands what knowledge is, what absolute knowledge means, and how misleading 'belief in' and 'faith' are as foundations for understanding and explaining. Hobbes has an advanced way of putting the nature of knowledge on a firm foundation. Chronologically Hobbes comes after Bacon and Galileo but before Newton, and is laying a foundation for Newton to think of knowledge as Universal, Necessary and Certain for explaining and understanding the natural world. (Newton with his laws of gravity will see the world in those terms as will Kant, but Heidegger and Kuhn much later will show how knowledge is best thought of as particular, contingent and probable).
Hobbes is also not very subtle in some of his arguments. He is an absolute authoritarian when it comes to the power vested in the sovereign. I realize now why Richard Nixon in the David Frost interviews argued that the chief executive could not possibly break the law and why some would think the Nuremberg defense was reasonable (Hobbes would defend both). Even in all his muddle arguments sometimes real gems of wisdom pop out. For example, no man can be trusted when his job is on the line, or those who are influential and widely known are more responsible for inciting violence than those who are unknown.
There are two things I know with certainty: 1) everyone should listen to (or read) this book, 2) nobody should listen to the third chapter of this book (probably 8 hours long), the one on the commonwealth of the church. The third chapter had way too many bible verses and I would say that the Enlightenment ignored that chapter for the most part with one exception. I had just recently read the "Age of Reason" by Thomas Paine, and it is obvious to me that in his first edition of the book he took Hobbes chapter three and used that to show why the bible was not holy and he also directly restates Hobbes points about how revelation from God most always be second hand to everyone but the person who speaks directly to God. An aside, it seemed obvious to me that Hobbes was an atheist (or deist), but he never would be explicit about it. Though, in that dreaded third chapter (please skip it if you can!) he is really interested in showing why the "papist' have less authority than the Church of England.
I really can't understate the obvious importance that this book has in the jump starting of the Age of Enlightenment. The book itself can be dry (and it is dryly read), but sprinkled through out the book are real pearls of wisdom. This book deserves to be the seventh most cited book on college syllabi. My only hesitation in recommending this book is the 3rd chapter with its endless bible citations. Don't skip the fourth chapter. There is a real elegant refutation against Aristotelian thought and the danger of appealing to authority over reason. After all, the Age of Enlightenment is most readily described by rejecting authority as your primary source for knowledge and appealing to reason instead.

Only 3/4 in does it finally become a fascinating read.
First of all almost unbearable then it seems to evolve into a very old Dan Brown novel where it finally picks up!!
